Wanted to share some feedback on the latest menu design.

I find that I need to connect/disconnect the dummy every time I unplug my MacBook from my display, otherwise it behaves like the display is still connected. I place the macOS menu bar on the right side, and my monitor on the right as well, so when I unplug the monitor with the dummy still attached I can't see the menu bar :)

With the previous version, this action was very easy to access. With the new menu design, this common action takes a lot longer, needing to locate it within the dummy settings. Any chance to have a quick connect/disconnect all dummies option for when transitioning from the desk to the road?

Love the app, bought a license. Thank you for making this!

Sure, I can add an option to put Settings toggle options to the main menu level.

However you should associate the dummy to a display, that should make it connect/disconnect automatically. If for whatever reason this does not work properly, you can try changing this setting and re-associate.

You can now put everything in the main menu level if you want.

Thank you for this tip, I was wondering if I had missed something. I'll give that a try, and your debugging steps if it doesn't work.

I also found that I can just close BetterDummy to "disconnect" then open it to "reconnect" as another option.

Awesome! Thank you. I was exploring the highly customizable settings yesterday, pretty cool for power users.
